What is the connection between what someone wants to purchase and what should be provided to everyone regarding healthcare transportation etc?

What is it to you if someone wants to purchase an expensive car? Or handbag? If they earned the money to purchase such an item who cares? They absolutely should be able to. I agree with the reat of your post but that part just seems judgey.
